Abstract

The layer ordering and faulting in (GaAs)n/(AlAs)n ultrashort-period superlattices was studied by using synchrotron x-ray scattering method. The effect of growth interruption on the interfacial structure was also discussed. It was found that the interfaces of these superlattices contain features on two different length scales namely random atomic mixture and ordered mesoscopic domains.
